I did a dist-upgrade yesterday using h2's script & things went smoothly [many thanks h2] - absolutely no problems. However scrolling on all open windows, firefox, openoffice etc is very jerky. Had a look at Xorg.conf
show driver as Vesa & not Savage. same info in Kanotix config display - ran detect video card... installed libgl2 but still showing up as vesa & scrolling is still jerky.
